*ANNOUNCEMENT IN A/N!*
Amelia's POV
"I WANNA GO ON THIS ONE!" Ashton shouted, pointing to one of the roller coasters. We've been to the carnival for 10 minutes and have already done 6 rides. Most of them we couldn't even bring Aiden on, so Ashton rode whatever ones he could, while me and Aiden just sat and watched. "One day you could ride that." I told Aiden after he kept whining, wanting to go on.
"Ash, why don't we go on one Aiden would like?" I said, hinting to him that Aiden is getting bored.
"Fine." He groaned, crossing his arms. I swear, it's like dealing with a 6 year old.
"Aiden. Is there a ride you wanna go on?" I asked him. His head turning in almost every direction, before stopping and his finger points to one particular ride.
"Twain!" He spoke in his baby talk.
"You wanna go ride the train?" I ask, looking over at the little kid train which had different carts you can sit in. I look back at Aiden and he is nodding his little head up and down, causing his curls to fly everywhere. I look over at Ashton who is looking at me like I'm crazy.
"I am not going on that." He refused.
"C'mon Ash! You wanted to go on all the rides and so does he. Besides he'd love you forever if you took him." I tried convincing him.
"He'd love me forever anyways." He spoke.
"Ashton, pleeeeeeease!" I begged. He groaned, before taking Aiden out of my arms.
"Fine, but next ride he wants, you're taking him." He spoke.
"Not making any promises." I giggled, before pecking Ashton's cheek. He smiled as a blush appeared on his face, before he walked in the direction of the kiddy ride. I sat on a nearby bench as I watched them ride the train. Aiden sat up front, pretending to be conductor and Ashton sitting in the cart behind him. Aiden has the biggest smile on his face, as he is ringing the bell.
"Aiden don't you dare crash this train!" Ashton shouted behind him, jokingly. He chuckled a bit, while Aiden had no care in the world. After 2 minutes, the train came to a hault. I stood by the exit gate and all I saw was Ashton still sitting on the train, his chin in the palm of his hand, looking bored out of his mind. Aiden on the other hand, has that huge smile still on his face.
"Sir, can you come get you're child?" The worker said. Ashton's face was flushed with embarrassment.
"You know, I would, but my ass is stuck in this train." He said, trying to get out. I bursted into laughter, nearly falling over. "Yes, Amelia very funny. Now come help me out!" He groaned. I wiped my eyes, before entering the gate. I grabbed Ashton's hand, trying to pull him out. When our fingers touched, I felt butterflies in my stomach. I look at Ashton and he had this smirk on his face after I gave a few tugs.
"Why are you smirking at me like that?" I chuckled.
"Because ever since I met you, you're always saving my ass." He laughed.
"You're such a dork." I giggled. I put my foot up on the side of the train and gave him another pull, causing him to get his butt out of the seat. When he stood up, it caught me off guard. Without realizing, I stared falling backwards, but Ashton still had my hand, so he stopped me from falling anymore. "And you're always saving mine." I spoke, causing him to chuckle. I stood back up and he stepped out of the train. I didn't realize it, but I still had his hand when I went to go pick up Aiden. I look up at him and smile, before letting go of his large hand. I picked up Aiden and walked through the gate. "Sorry about that!" I apologize to the worker, with Ashton following behind me. We make our way toward some of the booths, and I spot a giant brown teddy bear. "Oh my god, I want that bear!" I shout, running towards the booth. I stop and admire the bear, before facing the booth attendant. "How much for it?" I asked.
"The only way you can get it is if you pop a balloon with every shot!" He spoke with a snotty attitude. Ashton then came up behind me, resting one of his hands on my shoulder.
"Mate, you don't have to speak with the attitude." He spoke, trying to stay calm.
"Do you want the bear or not?" He snapped. I take a glimpse at the bear, then back at the man, a smirk slightly growing on my face.
"Bring it on." I say, pulling money out of my pocket and slapping it down on the table. The man took the money and grabbed 5 darts, while I handed Aiden to Ashton. He handed me the darts and I took one in my other hand. First one : Hit, second one: Hit, third one: Hit, fourth one: Hit, last one: Miss. "Damn it." I cursed under my breath.
"Awe too bad." The man said, admiring the cash, before sliding it into his pocket.
"That was all of my tips from this week!" I spoke, lowering my head to the ground, before turning around. "Let's go, Ash. I guess it wasn't really worth it."
"Wait." He said, before stepping up to the table and placing money down. "I wanna play." The man then took the money and handed him darts.
"Gladly." The man said with a smirk. Next thing you know, all 5 darts were thru balloons which bursted seconds before. The man's face went straight. I smiled and jumped, clapping my hands before wrapping my arms around Ashton's neck. I didn't even realize what I was doing until I felt my lips on Ashton's and his hand was at the small of my back, the other on my cheek. I pulled away, blushing, but Ashton beat me to it as his face was a crimson red. He cleared his throat, before looking at the man.
"I'll take that bear now, thank you." He said with a smirk, before grabbing the bear off of the shelf. "For you." He handed me the bear.
"Oh my god. Thank you Ash!" I thanked him. I handed him Aiden and then I pecked Ashton's cheek.
"It was my pleasure." He smiled, so I smile back at him. His eyes just made me melt. I couldn't help but look at the ground, a blush forming on my cheeks. "Why don't we go grab some burgers and cotton candy?" He broke the silence.
"I'd love that." I said, before heading
in the direction of the food court, but I felt a hand grab mine. I look up and see Ashton looking straight ahead, a small smile on his face. I could feel how tense he was through his hand, so I wrapped my fingers in between his, which made him relax a bit, a bigger smile appearing on his face.

I let out a deep exhale, landing on my bed. The carnival with Ashton was probably one of the best days I've had in so long. I kicked off my shoes and wiggled my toes, giving my feet a breather. I grabbed the teddy bear Ashton won me and cuddled into it, as I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, relaxing myself. A sudden buzz from my phone caught my attention. I opened my eyes and reached into my pocket, pulling out my phone and reading the text I received.
From: Ash xx
Be ready by 8 pm! Bring every blanket and pillow u own! Also wear something comfy! Xx
I smiled like a 12 year old girl flirting with a boy. I checked the clock and saw 7:40 pm. "Shit!" I cursed. I got off my bed and made my way over to my vanity, brushing through my hair. I looked at my face and then giggled. My face had a butterfly painted on it, kind of like a mask. I open my phone and look at the pictures I took of me, Asthon and Aiden, with all of our faces painted. Aiden had the batman symbol painted on like a mask, then Ashton's was painted like a cat. I couldn't help but laugh. I locked my phone and walked to the bathroom, washing my face. After drying my face I applied some toner and moisturizer, before heading back to my room. I applied a light layer on foundation and dotted concealer under my eyes. I lightly lined my lash line with some eyeliner and applied a coat of mascara. I then slipped on some sweatpants and my favourite jumper, then some fuzzy socks. I ran my fingers thru my hair, before walking towards the hall closet. Before I reach for a blanket, my phone buzzed. I grabbed it and read the new text.
From: Ash xx
Come outside! :) I have a surprise! Xx
I smiled, before sliding my phone back in my pocket and grabbing all my blankets and I also grabbed the pillows off my bed. I hurried downstairs and opened the front down. I stopped in my tracks and gasped. There stood Ashton in the driveway with a rose, in front of a 1987 Chevrolet pickup truck. I walked off the porch and towards the truck. "Ashton, where'd you get this truck?" I asked, staring at it in awe. Ashton took the pillows and blankets from me and threw them in the back of the truck.
"I rented it, just for us." He smile. My jaw dropped as I placed a hand on the light blue metal.
"This is incredible!" I say, still in awe. I've always wanted one of these trucks or at least drive one. It's been on my bucket list since I was 11. That and also spend the night in the back of one of them, in the middle of a field or near a beach. I'd love to just lay there and watch the sun set across the lake or water. "I'll go get some more pillows and blankets!" I say, walking back into the house. A minute later, I have more pillows and blankets in hand. I plop them in the back of the truck.
"Ready to go?" He asks me, handing me the rose. I look down at it and blush. I sniffed it and it had such a beautiful scent.
"Yeah, I'm ready I guess." I say. He opened the passenger door for me and I got in, then he closed the door and jogged over to the other side, getting in his seat. "Wait! What about Aiden?" I spoke, starting to worry. Ashton felt how tense I became and grabbed my hand.
"Relax. Liz offered to watch him for the night, so he is safe." He said in a hushed tone, followed by a small comforting smile. I look back at him and giving him a reassuring smile.
"Okay, I'm good. Let's go!" I pipe up. He starts the truck, bringing the engine to life. He pull out of the driveway and drove down the street. "So, where are we going and what are we doing?" I asked.
"You'll see." He smirked.
"Okay you need to stop that." I say, getting impatient.
"Trust me. It will be worth the wait." He said, before turning on the radio. The station it was on was playing I Miss You by Blink 182.
"Oh I love this song!" I exclaimed, before turning up the volume. I sang along to the song, running my finger over the leather of the seats and feeling the hem sown into them. I then rested my head up against the window, staring at whatever we passed. As I sang along, I felt a pair of eyes glancing at me every few seconds. I look over and see Ashton glancing towards me. "What?" I asked.
"You're just really beautiful when you sing." He admitted. I blushed, then went back to looking out the window, eventually returning to singing along to the music. After about 10 minutes, Ashton turns on to this dirt road, which randomly ended so now we're driving thru an empty field. He drives the truck to the top of a hill, then turning around so the back was facing the river down below. "Here we are!" I got out and stared in awe.
"Oh my gosh, this is so beautiful!" I say.
"That's not the only thing that's beautiful." Ashton said, looking at me. I look down and blush. "C'mon, let's get the blankets and pillows down."
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's now 9:30 pm and the sun is still peeking, so the sky is filled with gorgeous purples, pinks and oranges. My head and arm are resting on Ashton's chest, his arm holding me in close by his side, our legs tangled together, and his other hand is resting on his abdomen, rubbing small circles in the back of my hand. Since we got here, we have done nothing but talk. Talk about our lives, our interests, and told some pretty cheesy jokes. Now, we're just laying here, staring up into the sky, admiring all the beautiful colours and the small little stars that are starting to appear.
"Hey, Ashton?" I broke the silence.
"Yeah?" He mumbled. My head is still on his chest, listening to his heartbeat was so comforting.
"Thank you." I spoke in a hush tone.
"For what?" He asked, sounding confused.
"For everything you've given me." I started. "The teddy bear, the necklace, this right here, and even for giving me Aiden. You have no idea how grateful I am for everything, especially him." I exclaimed. He tilted his head and kissed the top of my head.
"I was happy to do every single one of them. I really enjoyed "giving" you Aiden." He said. I could just feel him smirking.
"Perv." I joked, slapping his arm. We sat in silence for a moment, before he broke it again.
"Amelia?" Ashton asked. I could hear his heartbeat speed up. I lift my head up and look at his face. He seemed nervous.
"What is it Ash?" I asked curiously.
"Well, ever since the day that I met you... Well again... I knew you were special. What I'm trying to say here is that... I really like you. And so, I was wonderin, Amelia..." He grabbed my hand and held it over his heart. "Will you be my girlfriend?" He asked, a lump forming in his throat. My heart jumped like I would watching a horror film. I was speechless. I just stared into his eyes. "Amelia?" He asked, a worried tone in his voice and his heartbeat picking up even faster. I didn't know what to say, so instead, I got up and pressed my lips to his, oh so passionately. I could feel his smile through the kiss as our mouths moved in sync. The kiss lasted for a few moments, which took my breath away. Once we pulled away, Ashton smiled like an idiot. "So is that a yes?" He raised one brow. I just chuckled, before pecking his lips.
"Yes, Ashton. Of course I will!" I stated. His smile grew even bigger. His lips connected to mine once again. I pull away and go back to my original position. I swear I heard his heart skip a beat. I felt his hand come up and push some hair behind my ear. I close my eyes and start to fade away.
I felt his lips on my temple, then I heard "Goodnight beautiful.", before fading into slumber, with a smile spread across my lips.
